Nanesa has been selected as partner of iGCAuto, a PIONEERING research project to develop lighter, stronger, more energy-efficient and safe vehicles, using ‘wonder material’ graphene, which could potentially revolutionise the global automotive industry.

Sheets with a thickness of a single carbon atom arranged in a hexagonal shape. Thanks to its amazing characteristics and interesting quantic effects, graphene is object of significant scientific researches.

Nanesa is an innovative start-up company that was born with the purpose of producing and marketing silver-based inks and conductive pastes as well as graphene-based nanometric products.

Nanesa aims at providing high quality products thanks to the integration of the associates’ industrial, management, technical and scientific competences with those of the corporate bodies connected with them.

Nanesa associates have been working on this project on graphene for 4 years. From a lab production of few grams a day, they managed to achieve a scalable production system, fully designed and implemented, which is now able to produce up to 3 tons nanometric materials a year. Nanesa has developed two classes of materials, called G2Nan (Nanesa Graphene Nanoplatelets) and GONan (Nanesa Graphene Oxide).

At its disposal Nanesa has a highly equipped lab for the characterization and the quality control of the products and of the experimental tests carried out.

Furthermore, Nanesa makes use of the nanotechnology lab and the competences of the associate Cabro S.p.A, as well as of CNR labs (spin-off Punto Quantico and nanomaterials lab of Istituto Materiali Compositi e Biomateriali).
